Kenilworth Warwickshire 12th October 2023

We visited Kenilworth Castle about an hours drive from Leicester yesterday. It was well worth it. The castle is a very atmospheric set of ruins today but in the Middle Ages up to the mid-17th century it was a very important & impressive palace. The Civil War was its undoing and although it was never attacked the keep was slighted on the orders of Parliament to stop it being used in future.

HBM everyone. Enjoy the new week.

The castle position reminds me a bit of Powis Castle, but it isn't so elevated.
HFF, Pete, and stay dry if possible.
